ABSTRACT

A sunshade device has a main shaft, a runner, an inner cap, a sensor socket, a plurality of stretchers, a plurality of ribs, a plurality of illuminating devices disposed on the ribs, and a sunshade panel disposed on the stretchers. The main shaft passes through the runner, the inner cap, and the sunshade panel. The sensor socket is disposed on the main shaft. The ribs are connected to the top end of the main shaft. Each of the stretchers is connected to the runner and the corresponding rib. A solar energy sensor is disposed on the sensor socket. An electric wire is connected to the solar energy sensor and the illuminating devices.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to a sunshade device.

[0002] More particularly, the present invention relates to a sunshadedevice which has a solar energy sensor and a plurality of illuminatingdevices.

[0003] A conventional sunshade device is often used as a sunscreendevice for a user in the daytime. However, the conventional sunshadedevice cannot be used at night. Since the conventional sunshade devicecannot illuminate light, the user will not pay attention to theconventional sunshade device at night.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0004] An object of the present invention is to provide a sunshadedevice which has a plurality of illuminating devices and a micromotionswitch and a flashing circuit board to control a flashlight of eachilluminating device.

[0005] Another object of the present invention is to provide a sunshadedevice which has a solar energy sensor to recharge an electric source inthe daytime in order to save an electric energy for a plurality ofilluminating devices to illuminate light at night.

[0006] Accordingly, a sunshade device comprises a main shaft, a runner,an inner cap, a sensor socket, a plurality of stretchers, a plurality ofribs, a plurality of illuminating devices disposed on the ribs, and asunshade panel disposed on the stretchers. The main shaft passes throughthe runner, the inner cap, and the sunshade panel. The sensor socket isdisposed on the main shaft. The ribs are connected to the top end of themain shaft. Each of the stretchers is connected to the runner and thecorresponding rib. A solar energy sensor is disposed on the sensorsocket. An electric wire is connected to the solar energy sensor and theilluminating devices.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0013] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 6, a sunshade device 9 comprises a mainshaft 1, a runner 12, an inner cap 13, a sensor socket 5, a plurality ofstretchers 11, a plurality of ribs 2, a plurality of illuminatingdevices 8 disposed on the ribs 2, and a sunshade panel 3 disposed on thestretchers 11.

[0014] The main shaft 1 passes through the runner 12, the inner cap 13,and the sunshade panel 3.

[0015] The sensor socket 5 is disposed on a top end of the main shaft 1.

[0016] The ribs 2 are connected to the top end of the main shaft 1.

[0017] Each of the stretchers 11 is connected to the runner 12 and thecorresponding rib 2.

[0018] A solar energy sensor 4 is disposed on the sensor socket 5.

[0019] An electric wire 81 is connected to the illuminating devices 8and the solar energy sensor 4 (not shown in the figures).

[0020] A flashing circuit board 6 is disposed in the sensor socket 5.

[0021] A micromotion switch 7 is disposed on one of the ribs 2 having ahole 21.

[0022] A control handle 71 is inserted through the hole 21 of the rib 2to be connected to the micromotion switch 7.

[0023] The solar energy sensor 4, the flashing circuit board 6 and themicromotion switch 7 are connected electrically.

[0024] The solar energy sensor 4 provides an electric source.

[0025] Each of the illuminating devices 8 is made of a light-emittingdiode.

[0026] The sensor socket 5 has a disk shape.

[0027] Referring to FIG. 1 again, the sunshade device 9 is extended inthe daytime so that the solar energy sensor 4 will recharge the electricsource.

[0028] Referring to FIG. 6 again, the sunshade device 9 is extended atnight and the micromotion switch 7 is turned on so that the illuminatingdevices 8 will illuminate light.

[0029] When the sunshade device 9 is folded, the micromotion switch 7will be turned off.

[0030] The present invention has the following advantages. Themicromotion switch and the flashing circuit board will control aflashlight of each illuminating device. The solar energy sensor willrecharge the electric source in the daytime in order to store anelectric energy for a plurality of illuminating devices to illuminatelight at night.

[0031] The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments butvarious modification thereof may be made. Furthermore, various changesin form and detail may be made without departing from the scope of thepresent invention.
